Karnataka unit of radical Islamist org PFI receives blue tick from Twitter

Social media giant Twitter has rewarded the nefarious radical Isalmist organization Popular Front of India (PFI) Karnataka with the “Blue Tick”.

This move of Twitter which has been at loggerheads with the Indian Government for failing to comply with the laws of the land is being seen as a deliberate provocation. 

The organization which is known for instigating communal riots and aiding terrorist attacks in India.  PFI, SDPI and other associated organisations have been under the scanner in UP after the anti-CAA riots that wrecked havoc in north-east Delhi. Members of the PFI were named as accused in the Bengaluru riots that took place in August 2020. PFI members were accused of killing 42-year-old PMK office member Ramalingam near Kumbakonam in Tamil Nadu.

Several investigation agencies, including the National Investigation Agency (NIA), have named PFI in many cases. 

In other news, involvement of several high-level officials of the forestry department aiding the Islamist PFI to carry out arms training in the dense forest has come to light.

According to investigation agencies, the appointments were made for the post of ‘forest fire watchers in all the forest areas, except for the Padam area.

PFI is involved in arms training in various parts of Kerala and now the Padam arms training camp has become the focus for intelligence agencies.

After the police found materials used to make explosives including gelatine sticks, detonators, and wires from the Padam forest area the possible terror attack emanating from Kerala has now increased.

In other development, the reason for the delay in the appointment of forest fire watchers in Padam was delayed until February 16 because the date has significance with PFI’s “Unity march” that happened on February 17.

During a search operation conducted by the Kerala Forest Department in cashew plantations under the Forest Development Corporation in Padam, Pathanapuram, and Kollam, explosive material such as Gelatin sticks-2, Detonators-4, battery, wires, guns, were discovered.

The investigating agencies discovered that over 200 Muslims were receiving arms training from this area which is known for its dense forests ideal for training terrorists in guerrilla warfare.
